New business paper to start near Seattle

Puget Sound Publishing Co., which already publishes a newspaper called The Business Report that goes to businesses south of Seattle, is starting a similarly named newspaper to be sent to businesses in communities east of Seattle.

The publication will have an initial circulation of 16,000 and will be mailed to every business address in Bellevue, Mercer Island, Kirkland, Redmond, Woodinville, Issaquah, Sammamish and Newcastle, according to this item in the Seattle Post-Intelligencer.

The paper likely competes against the Puget Sound Business Journal, one of the American City Business Journal newspapers. I’ve looked at that paper recently and consider it one of the better weekly newspapers in the country.
